At least three times today Ive had issues with Xtra ADSL .
I would get allocated a new ip, and some time later I wouldnt be able to
use the net, only way to fix it was to reboot my modem. (Which resulted in
having to reboot to windows to reset the passwords and routing rules)
It would have been more, except I got so Peed off I went up to the mount
to do some window shopping ;-)
Ps. it may be winter, but a sunny day in the mount sure do bring the purdy
gurls out

2 Mbit ADSL, nominally ihug, has been fine here today (and I've been
logged into work via the connection for the last 6 hrs without problems).

I've been getting disconnected a lot from Xtra ADSL (2M), and seeing
performance fluctuate up and down by huge amounts.

Lost my 256 UBS Orcon connection completely for over an hour early
afternoon. Rang Orcon, the guy said I was 6th or 7th in a row with the same
problem and the PABX was lit up like a Xmas tree. He said it looked like
Telecom and would call me back when he knew. Two hours later I'm back
on-line and he calls me back and says it was a wide-ranging Telecom problem,
all fixed now.
